NEED FUEL?
Permalink  

Couple of USAF tankers (Yank Tanks?) at Cairns Airport yesterday.  Here for a tech stop.  Couldn't see what model aircraft they were as the septics had painted over everything.

They are DC10s configured for air to air refueling. There must be some yank aircraft about. Perhaps an exersize with the RAAF?
